Open-Ceiling Speaker

Technical Information for System Engineers

Applications

Designed for indoor & outdoor back-

ground to mid-level SPL applications,

the RS600i includes a single-point

mounting system for rapid open-ceiling

installations with an optional SM6

bracket for surface-mount applications.

The broad dispersion pattern (45 Hz –

10 kHz, EASE™ documented) and high

sensitivity (90.5 dB 1W/1M) make the

RS600i speaker ideal for retail, restau-

rants, grocery stores, hotels, casinos,

fitness centers, conference rooms, big

box stores, museums, trade shows &

airports and other open-ceiling applica-

tions. For applications where additional

bass is required, SoundTube’s RS801i 8”

subwoofer provides bass down to 40 Hz.

BroadBeam

Wide

Dispersion Technology

More than 3 years in development,

SoundTube’s proprietary BroadBeam®

technology incorporates a high-fre-

quency waveguide mated to a 1” convex

aluminum tweeter. The BroadBeam®

high-frequency waveguide delivers a

consistent dispersion pattern across

the upper registers of the frequency

spectrum (up to 10 kHz, EASE™ docu-

mented). The result is an audio system

with fewer speakers, reduced power

needs, shorter installation time and cost

savings on shipping & labor.

of 12 dB per octave (2nd order) for both

low & high pass filters. Rated power

capacity shall be at least 90 Watts continu-

ous power (RMS) and conform to EIA-426-

B testing. Maximum continuous output at

1 meter shall be 110.5 dB.

The low-frequency transducer shall have

a polypropylene cone with butyl rubber sur-

round. The high-frequency transducer shall

be constructed of aluminum with a propri-

etary BroadBeam® waveguide.

Installation for the RS600i shall be by

aircraft cable affixed to the speaker chassis

via a carabiner. For seismic & safety

redundancy, a secondary aircraft cable

shall be included and attach to the speaker

chassis via #10 bolt. The external wiring

input connector shall be a 4-pin, 5 mm

Euroblock for 8 Ohm or distributed sys-

tems and shall accept from 10 – 22 gauge

wire. The system shall have a weather-

resistant boot covering all wire connectors.

The enclosure shall be constructed of

injection-molded, mineral-filled, glass- rein-

forced ABS. The grille shall be constructed of

iridite-plated, powder-coated steel for lasting

performance in the elements. Overall cabinet

dimensions shall be no more than 363.6 mm

(14.31 in) in height by 307.3 mm (12.10 in) in

diameter. The RS600i shall include hanging

hardware, Euroblock connector & weather-

resistant terminal boot.

The system shall be the SoundTube

RS600i with hanging hardware for both

low & high impedance applications.
